Institution:

Mt Hood Community College

Subject:

Description:

Credits 5 (4 Lecture - 3 Lab Hrs/Wk) - F General Physics with Calculus includes the following topics: motion in one and two dimensions, particle dynamics, work, energy, momentum, conservation of energy and momentum, collision theory, rotational kinematics and dynamics, rigid body equilibrium, oscillating systems and universal gravitation will be treated using practical problems and examples. Emphasis will be placed on logical reasoning, thorough understanding of the principles and the ability to successfully solve numerical problems. Vector notation will be employed extensively. The theory and results of classical mechanics will be used to predict the behavior of actual physical systems and explain phenomena commonly encountered in the real world.
